CULTURE STOOL (AEROBIC)
₹500.00
The Culture Stool (Aerobic) test is used to detect bacterial infections in a stool sample. The sample is cultured in an aerobic environment (with oxygen) to promote the growth of any bacteria present. This test is commonly used to identify gastrointestinal infections caused by bacteria, such as Salmonella , Shigella , Escherichia coli (E. coli) , and Campylobacter , which can lead to symptoms like diarrhea, abdominal pain, and vomiting.
By identifying the specific bacterial pathogen, this test helps guide appropriate antibiotic or antimicrobial treatment, aiding in the effective management of gastrointestinal infections. It can also help identify infections related to foodborne illnesses or travel-related diseases.
